Grilled Artichokes with Yogurt Dipping Sauce

January 15, 2017

I’ve never worked with artichokes before, but John saw some on sale at our go-to fruit and veg, so I figured it was finally time try them out.

Since it was my first time, I wanted to make a simple recipe that really showcased the artichoke. This grilled artichoke recipe from Bon Appetit was the winner. John had prepped artichokes before, so he thankfully helped me out with the trimming and cleaning.

Once they were prepped, they are just cooked in boiling water and then grilled (I used a cast iron grill pan) to get those beautiful grill and char marks.

The dipping sauce is delicious and super easy to make. It’s just Greek yogurt, lemon juice, dill, salt and pepper. It went perfect with the artichokes, and the leftover dip we served with fresh veggies as a snack.
